Ep. 95: Are Your Missing Periods Tanking Your Sports Performance? With Guest, Cynthia Donovan, RD

Have you been missing your period for months and not sure what's going on? Have you noticed a decline in your energy levels and performance? Did you know that the two are most likely linked and have a lot to do with your nutrition and training load? Unfortunately, up to 66% of female athletes may struggle with hypothalamic amenorrhea. Are you one of them?

My guest, friend and colleague, Cynthia Donovan, RD, is going to break it all down for us in this very informative episode you're not going to want to miss! Seriously, I could've kept talking to Cynthia for hours on this topic. Grab a coffee, a pen and paper to take some notes and let's go!
